I hope things are better at that time. Thanks, Tom.

Gotcha.
I would love to hear your thoughts on the Petri pro or con unfiltered. I will be ordering either a few more to finish the list or a bunch more depending on the reviews. Help me decide. Pics are always helpful. Due to the month that it took to get these I came up short so I didn't get to keep one to evaluate.
I'll check it out this evening Tom...didn't get a chance to even open the box last night.
Tom, have you seen the Evolve by VODistro? US made, roomy deck & tons of airflow. I picked one up locally for $60 & I'm still playing with it but it's pretty nice, looks like an easy one to BF although the gold plated 510 is a two piece.

Has anyone noticed most of the attys worth bottom feeding come bottom fed already now? Vector2, pancake, Narda, Hobo; No Pain, Helfire, even the Nectar? It seems I may have done my job a little too well. Perhaps it's time to get off the cross and go back to clones part time until something great comes up. In the last 30 days I have modded less than 40 attys which takes me back to 2014 numbers. It seems anymore no one wants to sell to me they want to handle their own sales and drive up prices. This comes at the worst possible time for me.
The LBC will cost me about 25k to bring to market and recent changes in the market cutting me back to ten pieces or none more often than not is going to stifle or stop the LBC in its tracks. Initially the Releaux133bf was going to be the solution but that's not going to happen. I had hoped for wide spread adoption of the Petriv2 and hopefully it's accepted and loved but I always have a plan B. Plan B is doing clones again. It's not my first choice of directions to take Catfish and I'm sure at some point I will regret it but it is what it is.
That said what would you like to see? It seems Ross has grabbed the Narda clone which mortified me at first but the more I thought about it Nareg has done it to himself. I have gotten my feet wet in the dealing with machine shops game and the difference between driving prices up, feeding flippers and actually meeting your demand is nothing more than adding a few zeros to your purchase order and hiring help to get it done. It's not rocket science is assembling and finishing pre-made parts. As the folks that have been with me for a year or more know I always try to meet demand no matter the cost to my social and or family life, it's just who I am. If you want something, and I can get it, you will have it. Period. Modders can't or won't meet my demand so I will have to do it the other way. In regards to the Narda until Ross sends me an email stating he doesn't want to do them anymore the Narda is his. If he taps out I will run with them. (Just thought that needed to be said).

Check out the Vinyl
I just did one as a send in and it turned out great. Huge squonk hole (1.7mm) small well, 2 post, great atty, the one I did has a nylon (or maybe vinyl) chuf cap but there is a SS version available. I believe the atty you are talking about is a version of the same atty that became the vinyl. I will be hunting alibaba this weekend to see if I can find viable candidates for greatness.
Sadly, I am 2 time zones from my mailbox and the Vinyl...
That VODistro actually looks different - I think it's a different "distro" involved.

I'm not 100% sure I'll like the NarDa so figured trying the clone out was a no brainer. I might still being for an authentic if/when they become available.

Sorry fishwater, I responded before actually looking at your link. That atty looks like a great option. Let me see what I can do. By all means if you want to,be the first send that puppy in. Notice they mention the gold plated positive post which is usually a bad thing but in this case it's advertised as gold plated 316L so it's ok. I will work on getting them.
All praise Fishwater......
Correct... I was basing my original post off of that. Glad I looked at the link. I have a request in already.Sadly, I am 2 time zones from my mailbox and the Vinyl...

And I would NOT recommend the Hastur 2. I somehow managed to snap my positive post last night with very little pressure.
